ABOUT US

Nestled amongst the world's largest stand of Ponderosa pines, Creekside Cabins, Steakhouse & Historic Tavern is located in the little village of Christopher Creek tucked below the majestic Mogollon Rim just 22 miles east of Payson, Arizona and 10 miles West of Woods Canyon Lake.

An area made famous by author Zane Grey who wrote about the mystical wild Tonto Country, Christopher Creek is brimming with natural beauty and is truly a destination for people who want to hear the wind in the forest, the rushing water of our pristine creek tumbling over small falls or the bugle of a Rocky Mountain Elk. Wildlife of all kinds live and wander around this rugged area and it isn't an uncommon occurrence to see elk, deer, wild turkey, and squirrels roaming the lush countryside.

A place to feel the joy of leaving no tracks, a place to hike, fish and meditate; our cabins make for an idyllic getaway for those seeking to get closer to nature.

I highly recommend this weekend getaway! I stayed in cabin 3 which slept 6. The cabin is so freakin cute and cozy. It was clean and updated. Each room had a heater and extra cozy blankets. The room also came with games and a fireplace. The fact that you’re able to walk to the restaurant, was really cool. They have grills and fire pits right outside your room. Also each cabin is pet friendly ❤️

This was our first visit to Cabins at Creekside. We had such a great experience that we reserved the same Cabin in July. The Cabins at Creekside are affordable, clean and offer great amenities for the area. The owners/operators are very helpful and friendly.

This was the best 4th of July ever which covered our family of 5 ages ranging from 9 to 59. The cabin and location were perfect, the patio and activities were above expected. The food was perfect. Everyone was super friendly! Great family trip. We can’t wait to come back. Thanks to Ingrid and all the wait staff.
